2025 has been a challenging year for renewables. The new tax law, commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, rolled back many clean energy tax credits and imposed new restrictions, pressuring early-stage wind and solar pipelines. 2 TW dc • China continued to dominate the global market, representing ~60% of 2024 installs, up 52% y/y. • The IEA reported Pakistan's rapid rise to fourth place in annual global PV. . Key updates from the Fall 2024 Quarterly Solar Industry Update The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) reports that, between 2010 and 2023, the global weighted average levelized cost of energy of concentrating solar power (CSP) fell from $0. 39/kilowatt-hours (kWh) to under $0. 12/kWh—a. . Electricity generation by the U. In our latest Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO), we expect U. 6% in 2027, when it reaches an annual total of 4,423 BkWh. Even so, Goldman Sachs Research expects rapid growth in the sector, with global solar installations set to rise to 914 Gigawatts (Gw) in 2030, 57% above 2024 levels. Global solar installations reached nearly 600 GW – an impressive 33% increase over the previous year – setting yet another record. Solar accounted for 81% of all new renewable energy capacity added worldwide.
